Adam Clarke, on 1Cor 9:15
Adam Clarke · 1762–1832
1Cor 9:15 · Douay-Rheims
“But I have used none of these things. Neither have I written these things, that they should be so done unto me: for it is good for me to die, rather than that any man should make my glory void.”
On this verse:
“Neither have I written, etc. - Though I might plead the authority of God in the law, of Christ in the Gospel, the common consent of our own doctors, and the usages of civil society, yet I have not availed myself of my privileges; nor do I now write with the intention to lay in my claims.”
